About Colorado County Fair

The Colorado County Fair in Columbus is a spring fair on the Colorado River in the historic German-Czech belt of Southeast Texas, celebrating the cattle and row crop heritage of a county with one of the most beautifully preserved Victorian courthouse towns in the state. The area's broader history includes notable events and landmarks dating to 1890.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, carnival rides, local food vendors, and a small-county fair in the gently rolling prairie and river bottom country of Colorado County.

Visitor Tips

Columbus is renowned for its Victorian architecture — the 1890 Colorado County Courthouse, a remarkable collection of historic homes and buildings, Beason's Park on the Colorado River, and the Stafford Opera House make Columbus one of the most charming small towns in Texas.
